Men, did you feel helpless when you had your baby?

I don't remember feeling helpless, I just did what felt right and it seemed to work. I learned a lot and I remember my first lesson. Our first was a boy and we had problems getting him to sleep, so I'd put him in the car seat and go for a ride until he fell asleep. I think it was the third or maybe first time I did it solo, I began to smell something as we rode along, and knowing that meant he needed to be changed, I pulled over, took him out of his car seat, put him on his back and started the process. It was night so even with the overhead light on I couldn't be sure I'd got him cleaned, so I leaned down to see better. Yeah, a golden shower ensued. Lesson learned.
